Means a fine (7)

I believe the answer is:

capital

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'means' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a fine' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for capital that I've seen before include "Major city - investment - great!" , "Chief; excellent" , "Upper case city" , "Madrid, say" , "liquid assets" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
